Patient's question:
I am very scared when this happens. I often experience lower abdominal pain and don't know how to solve it, so I came here to consult. How can I quickly restore my body after a cesarean section?Doctor's answer:
Exercise is an important and effective method to prevent postpartum weight gain. Exercise should begin during the postpartum period, and it is essential to perform daily exercises such as sit-ups and leg and head lifts simultaneously to strengthen the abdominal muscles. In the later stages of the postpartum period, the mother should consciously tighten her abdomen whether sitting or standing, avoiding relaxation of the abdominal muscles. Exercise should also be continued during breastfeeding. Simple leg lifts can be done regularly, and at least 20~30 sit-ups should be performed daily, along with exercises like sit-ups and dumbbell lifts, to reduce fat accumulation in the abdomen, waist, and hips, prevent breast sagging, and gradually improve body shape. Proper diet is also crucial.
